Hello and Welcome to ‘Ask A Doctor’ service.
I have reviewed your query and here is my advice.
Birth control pills are efficient in conditions like loose stools as they are absorbed immediately from the stomach and not from large bowel. So nothing worry about contraceptive failure while you are suffering from loose stools.
Hope I have answered your query. Let me know if I can assist you further.
Regards,
Dr. Shinas Hussain
